Depression Defined
When you wish your life away
But time seems to slow
When the memories start to fade
And you feel like you have no place to go
When your world seems to be falling apart
But there's nothing you can do to keep it together
When you're left with a shattered heart
And there's nothing you can do to make it better
When the light has been snuffed out
And you cant get it burning again
When all you want to do is scream and shout
Because back into the darkness you descend
When all you do is cry
But you dont know what about
When all you want is to die
Because you cant silence the doubt
When you find love in the blood you bleed
Because that's the only thing that gets you high
When you just wish to be freed
From what seems to just be a tremendous lie
When you dont know what to do
And you dont know what to say
When you feel like there's no one to turn to
And nothing will ever be okay
When you try so hard to stay strong
But there's always someone that drags you down
When your whole life just seems to have gone wrong
And smiles are replaced by frowns
When the world becomes and empty place
And you just feel so utterly alone
When you cant find a familiar face
In a place you consider your home
When you have hit rock bottom
And all you can do is pray
Because your biggest problem
Is deciding if you're getting out of bed today
This is depression defined.
